Moses having his hands up was pivotal in Israel experiencing victory in their battle with Amalek. As long as his hands were up, they succeeded. When his hands came down, they began to lose the battle. A pastor is a spiritual leader with great responsibilities. His congregation plays a role similar to that of Aaron and Hur. In order for a pastor to carry out what God has placed on the inside of him, he needs help. He needs someone to hold his arms up. What would have happened if Moses only had one arm up? What if Aaron or Hur decided not to do their part? The Israelites would have lost. When it comes to the local church. Everyone must do their part. The Bible tells us that every joint supplies (Ephesians 4:16). Every part of the body is important. The eye isn’t more important than the ear. The ear isn’t more important than the hand. Every part of the body must carry out its role in order for the body to function the way it's supposed to. In the same way, we must all fulfill our role in our respective church if it is going to function the way God designed for it to.
